The Osthoff Resort

The Osthoff Resort www.osthoff.com, a sprawling AAA Four-Diamond Resort, overlooks lovely Elkhart Lake in Wisconsin. The casual elegance is welcoming. I had an amazing suite in the all-suite hotel with a full kitchen and dining area. The living room had a fireplace which, I'm sure, comes in handy with the chilly Wisconsin temperatures. A balcony stretched across the living room and bedroom. The bedroom had a king-sized bed that was high and took a special hop to get into it. In the bathroom, a Jacuzzi tub and a walk-in shower gave me a choice of cleansing styles.

The resort is BIG. My room was at the end of a long hall which I reached from another long hall. After doing the trek a couple of times a day, I felt no guilt skipping gym workouts. All in all, the Osthoff Resort was comfortable and is one of my favorite hotels.

About Me

I became interested in travel as I studied art history. I wanted to view the wonderful paintings, sculpture and architecture in person. As I did so, I discovered the people and their lifestyles which intrigued me. I've continued to travel and have gone beyond the borders of Western art. Travel, foreign and domestic, has enriched my life and has broadened my perspective.
